How the First Domain Name Was Registered

Before Google or Amazon, there was symbolics.com. Registered on March 15, 1985, by a company building artificial intelligence machines, the first commercial domain name launched the internet's naming system. This episode travels back to the early days of the Domain Name System, the key figure Jon Postel, and the story of Symbolics — a pioneering AI firm that secured the very first dot-com. Learn how a small team's decision created a cornerstone of the modern internet, and what ultimately happened to that historic company. A story of technology, foresight, and the quiet infrastructure that made the web possible. #Symbolics #FirstDomainName #DomainNameSystem #JonPostel #AIHistory #LispMachine #InternetHistory #DotCom #TechHistory #SiliconValley #Pioneers #Origins #Technology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #TechHistoryWithFexingo #Podcast #InternetOrigins Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
